Erick Erickson commented on SOLR-13396:
---------------------------------------
Hmmm, actually this seems like it would be an overseer task, look at the queue
and delete what's reasonable. which is really sending a core admin request to
each node.
I don't think in the normal state there's really any work here. In the usual
case, Solr starts up and each core is found to be part of a collection and no
znode is written. Likewise if the list is empty there's nothing to do as far as
the overseer is concerned and nothing to report as potential problems.
Admittedly in my above scenario there'd be a zillion znodes written but who
cares in that case? ;)

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13396
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Components: SolrCloud
> Affects Versions: 7.3.1, 8.0
> Reporter: Shawn Heisey
> Priority: Major
>
> SOLR-12066 is an improvement designed to delete core data for replicas that
> were deleted while the node was down -- better cleanup.
> In practice, that change causes SolrCloud to delete all core data for cores
> that are not referenced in the ZK clusterstate. If all the ZK data gets
> deleted or the Solr instance is pointed at a ZK ensemble with no data, it
> will proceed to delete all of the cores in the solr home, with no possibility
> of recovery.
> I do not think that Solr should ever delete core data unless an explicit
> DELETE action has been made and the node is operational at the time of the
> request. If a core exists during startup that cannot be found in the ZK
> clusterstate, it should be ignored (not started) and a helpful message should
> be logged. I think that message should probably be at WARN so that it shows
> up in the admin UI logging tab with default settings.
